| contents | <p>A fully recoverable leakage behaviour is observed near the source side of 2D back gate HfO2 oxide FETs when subjected to a gigapascal (GPa) -level mechanical stress (MS) applied locally via a nanoindenter tip. Due to the asymmetrical device structure of 2D-FETs, the generated stress is distributed non-uniformly, with maximum compressive stress concentrated near the source ‘S’ terminal rather than the drain ‘D’ terminal. Among the studied channel lengths (L ~ 0.135 µm to L ~ 10 µm), longer channels exhibit higher stress near the source terminal than the drain side, attributed to proximity effects under a constant applied load. An increase in gate leakage current with increasing MS is consistently observed, suggesting the generation of shallow traps. At the same time, the apparent reduction in the band gap lower the barrier for electron emission, giving rise to behaviour that appears consistent with a low-voltage dependent Poole–Frenkel (PF) mechanism approaching ohmic characteristics. Notably, upon removal of the mechanical stress (MS), the gate leakage fully recovers. These findings underscore the mechanical sensitivity of HfO2 gate dielectrics in 2D TMDs semiconductor devices and provide new insights into mechanical stress-induced reliability concerns, as well as the potential for mechanically changed electronic responses.</p> |
